Not sure why that kwargs spec fails, it passes locally...

Hey, thanks for the PR. In the future, it's better to first propose a new feature on our discussion forum. I'm not sure if this can be accepted so first I'd appreciate if you could expand on the idea that this would help integrating auto_inject with existing projects. I just need to be sure that in some cases this would indeed be helpful and using existing strategies wouldn't be an option.

Found this while trying to use dry-rails with ActiveJob. Using this strategy would allow injection for jobs. I'm using the Container directly for now. ActiveJob tries to serialize all constructor args, which most dependencies won't serialize and would probably not be good even if they did.

+1 for this strategy

@candland that's a really good use case. Thanks. I think we could include it then. WDYT @timriley ?

you should all just use effects and call it a day 😆

@flash-gordon oh right, I'm much more inclined to switch to effects altogether at some point (sooner than later for sure), but for now, this sounds reasonable, no?

@solnic I don't have preferences over injection strategies. In this case, it looks strange that in order to inject a dep you'll get an anonymous copy of a class. I might have unwanted side effects but I guess it's up to the user to deal with it.

@flash-gordon what are effects? Where I can read more about them?

@candland https://dry-rb.org/gems/dry-effects/0.1/effects/resolve/
I also have a sample project with dry-everything https://github.com/flash-gordon/rt-tracker
And there's an example of using effects in an existing rails project https://github.com/flash-gordon/forem

@maxhollmann woud it be possible for you to solve your problem using an effect-based injector like @flash-gordon suggests?

That might work, I'll check in the coming days. I share flash-gordon's concern with the anonymous subclass, so I'd be happy if I can get around it using the effects injector.

@maxhollmann cool! I think it's worth mentioning that we'll probably switch to an effect-based injector as the default way (maybe even the only officially supported way) at some point in the future, so testing this out would be very helpful 🙂

Okay, I finally got around to looking at the effects provider. It would indeed be much cleaner than this solution, but I haven't found a good way to provide the default dependencies everywhere in a Rails app (server, tests, console, rake/thor tasks). Does anyone know of a clean way to do this?

@maxhollmann there's no out-of-the-box solution I would say, I'm still gathering use cases to wrap them with a nice API. Normally, I create a single effect stack and re-use it in places like CLI or background tasks.
This is how it's typically done: https://github.com/flash-gordon/rt-tracker/blob/main/lib/rt_tracker/handlers_stack.rb
This is how it's used: https://github.com/flash-gordon/rt-tracker/blob/825855e07d135ed73547a541e2dbd73c6408956c/Rakefile#L13-L23
Really, nothing fancy.

Really, nothing fancy.

EXACTLY, this is what makes this so freaking awesome 🙂
